GOSH Spring/Summer 2016

I've said it before and I'll say it again, GOSH are one of the most underated beauty brands and yet they're one of the most innovative and exciting on the High Street. Their Spring/Summer 2016 collection* shows just that. So here are just some of the new releases that launch in Superdrug stores and online today;

One of the most talked about launches from the new collection has to be their brand new lip oils. I've had my eye on the Clarins lip oils for a little while now but at £18 they were a little out of my budget. At £7.49 each, GOSH's lip oils are certainly a whole lot more purse friendly. Not only that but they give your lips that glossy look whilst also providing more hydration than a typical lip balm and simultaneously giving your lips a pop of colour too. As someone who often suffers from dry and cracked lips these lip oils have quickly become an essential for me since trying them.

GOSH have also added to their already brilliant collection of eyeshadows with a stunning new palette and gorgeous new Forever eye shadow stick shades. I own quite a few GOSH shadow sticks and eye shadow palettes and the formulation is fantastic, especially when you consider the drugstore price point. If you're looking to introduce more matte shades into your beauty routine then these shadows are definitely the way to go. The palette packed full of wearable shades is just £10.99 and the shadow sticks retail for £7.49. But don't forget that Superdrug frequently run 3 for 2 deals across the GOSH range so you can certainly bag a real bargain when it comes to this brand.

If you've been reading Ellis Tuesday for a while now, you'll know just how much I adore the NARS 413 BLKR Illuminator. If you haven't seen that review yet, here it is. I didn't think that I would ever find a drugstore version of my beloved NARS Illuminator but GOSH have done it again and at a fraction of the price of the NARS alternative at just £7.99. Their LUMIDROPS, available in three shades, are liquid highlighters with stunning pearl pigments and a shimmery finish. You can also add a drop or two to your favourite foundation to brighten it up a little, something that I will definitely be trying over the Summer months.And talk about illuminating the skin, the brand new Primer Plus+ Illuminating Skin Perfector has you covered there. Not only does this prime the skin but it also bridges the gap between traditional skincare and make-up. If you're looking for a radiant and glowing finish then this is the primer for you and like most primers, it can either be used on it's own or under foundation but unlike other primers that I've tried in the past, it can also be used on top of foundation to strobe. Now how fantastic does that sound? It's also just £14.99 (or £9.99 if you head over to Superdrug right now!)

And to round off the 2016 Spring/Summer collection we have a brand new volumising mascara and even more shades of their fantastic velvet touch lipsticks. Basically if you're looking to update your make-up bag for 2016 or want to try out some new products, I would certainly recommend making a trip to your nearest GOSH stand.What do you think of GOSH's new releases? Have you tried anything from GOSH in the past? If so, what did you think of it? And would you be interested in seeing some more brand new beauty releases, most of which haven't even been released yet, this month?
